Kinsham Raceway

Kinsham Raceway runs near Presteigne on the Welsh-English border in Powys (on the Welsh side) close to Herefordshire. The outdoor rural track sits between the Black Mountains to the south and the Welsh Marches to the west, in one of the most sparsely populated regions of the UK.

Outdoor karting open to amateur drivers and family groups. Safety briefing on arrival and full equipment provided. Short-format sessions suit birthday bookings, stag and hen parties, corporate team-building, and rural club outings. The site serves the Presteigne-Kington-Hereford catchment at the meeting point of the Welsh Marches and Herefordshire, and is reachable from the southern Black Mountains foothills and the Brecon Beacons fringe.
